Hearing the words "Three Saints Bless", the young messengers and family members around Zhu Da were a little confused, but Zhu Da understood and said, "You go to the distance to guard, I will ask alone." ”

Although the people around him didn't know why, they still dispersed into the distance, but they could guess a few points, and the identity of this Sun Wu was probably not simple.

When everyone walked away, Zhu Da sneered and said, "It's actually the old white lotus's person, who came back with the Tartar?" ”

"Master, ...... you" Sun Wu didn't expect Zhu Da to be able to tell the calendar, and his attitude of deference and self-blame was broken by this shock, and he looked at Zhu Da with wide eyes.

The so-called "Three Sages" refers to the three Buddhist saints of Amitabha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and Dashi Zhi Bodhisattva, and the sect that recites this together is the White Lotus Sect, which is still the oldest one.

In the middle of the Mengyuan Dynasty, there was this kind of scripture hall dedicated to the three saints in the city and the bustling market, which was presided over by the preacher of the scriptures, collected and worshipped and operated the industry, and passed down from generation to generation, in fact, it was not much different from the temple of descendants, and it was a business that could bring a rich life.

However, as time went on, tribes of various purposes began to appear, and as the rule of the Meng Yuan became more and more harsh and tyrannical, these tribes began to secretly organize rebellions, and many leaders of the Red Turban Army were from the White Lotus Sect, and it is said that Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was the same.

When the Ming Dynasty was established, the White Lotus Sect did not dissipate, but was used by all kinds of people with intentions, some were used to collect money, and some were vainly trying to rebel, the result was that the imperial court and the government of the White Lotus Sect were completely banned, in this case, the various factions that originally called themselves the White Lotus Sect either went underground, or changed their faces, what Wuwei Sect, Wenxiang Sect, Luo Sect, Dacheng Sect and the like, this kind of folk sect was extremely weak in metaphysics and speculation, with the change, the rituals and teachings began to have a big change, From the very beginning of the belief in the Three Saints to the worship of Maitreya and the childless mother.

Distinguish between various sects and how to deal with them, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun have been taught very completely, and it is not only Yuan Biao who teaches them, but also all kinds of people that Qin Xiu can find back then.

The reason is also very simple, the sect is one of the most difficult forces to provoke, these sects that have been banned by the government are lawless, not to mention secretive, there are enough manpower and financial resources, and they don't abide by the rules and conventions, if they are right, it will be quite troublesome, they can avoid it, and they can't avoid thinking about how to solve it.

The White Lotus Sect that says "Three Saints Bless" every day has not changed its appearance, and has always called itself White Lotus internally and externally, but this one is different from other sects, he is divided into two branches, the south branch is a semi-legal circulation, generally in the name of Guanyin Hall and the like, and the north branch has been banned for 30 years, the cause is simple, nothing more than to incite the people to rebel, but after the ban, a considerable number of sectarians fled to the grassland, sheltered by the Mongolian tribes.

In Zhu Da's memory, this kind of situation was a grand event of "promoting cultural exchanges" for more than 20 years, but at this time, these old White Lotus followers intentionally or unintentionally became accomplices of various Mongolian tribes, such as sending spies, such as preaching in the northwest border town of the Ming Dynasty to recruit believers as internal response.

Therefore, Sun Wu said "Three Saints Bless", which immediately made Zhu Da judge the origin, but four words are equivalent to the crime of murder, and this Sun Wu said it like this, which also made Zhu Da stunned.

"Let's talk about it!" Zhu Da's voice was very cold, he had consciously figured out the cause and effect, this Sun Wu should indeed be cut with a thousand cuts.

Sun Wu, who was kneeling on the ground, was silent for a while, his body began to tremble, and he could see that he was in tears by the reflection of the firelight, and he wanted to speak but couldn't speak, just desperately wiped away the tears on his face.

“...... I'm sorry folks, I'm sorry for the blessing of the three saints, I was thundered that day, and I fell into hell and was burned by fire for ten thousand years......"

“...... The incense lord summoned everyone and said that it was an order from the side of the main altar to use mana to make the Tartars kill and rob Datong, destroy the outer ways, and make great merits......"

“...... At the beginning, I joined the sect to treat the diseases of the villagers, but this is to lose my conscience, and those who believe in religion together also have to make a fortune together, saying that this opportunity is just to start with the big families......"

It is difficult for outsiders to stay in the closed villages and towns for too long, and the infiltration method used by the North Branch of the Old White Lotus is to cultivate local natives as believers, and then arrange real disciples to come here, with the master and apprentice as the appearance, covering each other and controlling each other, of course, after entering the sect, people will gradually be brainwashed, begin to be loyal to the sect, and become more and more distant from their relatives and fellow villagers.

Sun Wu's master was an old man in his sixties, who knew that his hands were not witchcraft, and although he was loyal to the White Lotus Altar on the grassland, he fell ill before this convocation and let Sun Wu go alone.

The order passed down from the grassland was to let the believers everywhere be guides to make this "killing and robbery" comprehensive, but Sun Wu made up his mind to go back to report the news and take the people of the whole village to flee.

After returning to the village, Sun Wu and the people of the same village said this, but this matter is too appalling, no one wants to believe it, after all, it is to abandon the family and business, to say that this Sun Wu treats diseases and saves people on weekdays, and his prestige in the village is very high, I thought that after saying it, many people will follow, but I didn't expect to be questioned, ridiculed and abused, saying that my brain was broken and I lost my mind and went crazy.

“...... In the end, I couldn't help it, I thought about either dying with the villagers, or I would run away with my master behind my back, my master, my master He climbed out of the kang, swore in the village that what I said was true, and slit his throat with a broken bowl......"

Sun Wu's master came to this village for more than 20 years, took Sun Wu as an apprentice for more than ten years, and was loyal to the White Lotus Sect on the grassland, but he didn't expect to make such an act at this time.

This old man's WeChat in the village is higher than Sun Wu, many villagers think that he has mana or something, such a person is willing to use death to explain the truth of a thing, then it is convincing enough, you must know that the old man is not terminally ill, the disease can be cured in a few days......

“....... The Tartar came too fast, these god-killing beasts, in addition to our sect, there must be other spies......" Speaking of this, Sun Wu was already gritting his teeth with a hideous expression.

Although the people in the village are urgent, they still have to clean up, and Sun Wu said that there are still a few days left, and everyone is not so anxious, and there are even people who go to inform their relatives, Sun Wu and several young people in the village go to find a nearby place to hide, and if there is a choice, everyone will not hide in the cellar and resign themselves to fate.

The muddy Sun Wu found a good place in the mountains, and before leaving the mountain, he saw the smoke and dust sweeping in, saw the villagers who escaped from the village, and saw the villagers being flooded by the smoke and dust......

“...... I'm guilty, if I hadn't said the day, everyone wouldn't ......have left so late," Sun Wu choked and muttered, but at this time, he hit the ground desperately with his head, and after hitting it a few times, he was crying and crying there, crying and shouting there.

"Master, the apprentice is not filial!" "Master, it's not that good intentions are rewarded, the Buddha and the Bodhisattva will bless ......" "I didn't let you live a good life for a few days......"

Heart-rending shouts, this Sun Wu's emotions have collapsed, but there will be no commotion at this time, even if the refugees on the shantytown hear it, they only hear the cry, and it is not a killing or anything like that, it is nothing.

Sun Wu's narration of all this does not seem to be made up, among the refugees recruited, there are nine of his fellow villagers, and some of his words are very simple to confirm, and a few details are not made up at random, or if they are made up, there will only be flaws, Zhu Da will confirm it, but it is generally confirmed to be true.

Looking at Sun Wu's heart-rending cry with his head on the ground, Zhu Da felt an inexplicable wave of irritability in his heart, I don't know why, Sun Wu's crying reminded him of his parents, Xiang Bo and Yuan Biao, Zhu Da walked over with a cold face, kicked Sun Wu over, followed and kicked his foot, this kick made Sun Wu's cry stop immediately, as if he was choked, the whole person curled up, and his face turned red and struggled for a long time before coughing.

Of course, Zhu Da kept his strength, otherwise, this kick could kick people to death, after kicking this kick, Zhu Da's hand was released from the hilt of the knife, if this Sun Wu was a spy of the White Lotus Sect, and led the Mongolian horse team to slaughter the village, then Sun Wu and his fellow villagers would be tortured, and they would be buried directly after the torture.

"From this point on, you can't say a word to others, let alone say anything to others about the nonsense of the White Lotus Sect, otherwise, you will die, and the person you talk to will die together." Zhu Da suppressed his excitement and said in a muffled voice, he hadn't decided what to do with Sun Wu yet, the anger and excitement at this time had nothing to do with Sun Wu, this crying Sun Wu was just a pitiful and pathetic little person.

Before shouting to the family to come and take Sun Wu away, Zhu Da also asked a few words, and the answer was somewhat expected, for example, the reason why he organized the refugees to make a fuss was actually to fight for a good treatment for everyone, so that everyone would not be treated as cattle and horses, and even thought that if the main family was held responsible, he would come forward to bear it, and at this time, Sun Wu, who was full of self-blame and guilt, was already thinking of martyrdom.

Zhu Da didn't sleep well this night, he woke up late at night and couldn't sleep anymore, his mind was very confused, he didn't know if he had a dream, but he vaguely remembered that he dreamed of Baibao Village in his dream, and his family and villagers were still alive, which made him feel very bad.

Just like this, he and the family Ding Zhuang were on duty until dawn, calculating the opening of the city gate and the time on the road, there was almost no delay, Chang Kai came with four fully loaded carts, and the guards of the carts were also the shift of the family and the young poor people, after yesterday's training, the manpower used to suppress and maintain order was not so much, Meng Tian and Fu Yu also came, but these two people seemed to be isolated by the messengers......
